What credit card does Hank Paulson carry?

It’s Tuesday afternoon and we’re all admittedly punchy on the Eagle business desk.

So we were sitting around wading through all the Wall Street bailout news when my colleague Dan Voorhis mused aloud what kind of credit card Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson would need to snap up all those bad mortgages.

“What comes above platinum?” he wondered. “Black?”

I think black is probably appropriate, don’t you?

American Excess.

Don’t leave Wall Street without it.

    Unfortunately, the majority own “get out of jail free” cards.

    I think it must be the new “RED” card.
